Civil Rights

There are many ways that your Civil Rights can be harmed. You should know that you may have the right to pursue any violation of your Civil Rights which are protected by the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of Ohio, as well as various statutes which prohibit discrimination.

Employment Discrimination

Perhaps the most likely place to encounter a violation of your Civil Rights is in the workplace. Your employer is not permitted to discriminate against you for any of the following reasons:

Color

Age

Sex

Race

Nationality

Religion

Disability

Your employer also may have obligations to prevent its employers, particularly those in management, from discriminating against co-workers.

Police Misconduct

Police have certain obligations when confronting or arresting citizens in terms of using excessive force or harming them in other ways without a reason to do so. We have taken on several law enforcement authorities when the conduct of the police crosses acceptable boundaries. Law enforcement authorities must be held accountable when they violate the civil rights of a citizen.
